#96: The Real Reason People Won't Change [Research Rundown]
About this episode
Do you, as school leaders and instructional coaches, find yourselves struggling to bridge the gap between our well-intentioned educational goals and the realities of student learning and teacher development that hinder achieving those goals? This disconnect can stem from a clash between two different types of commitments: stated and competing commitments that impact our everyday school life.
There is a key reason this gap exists: unconscious mindsets and beliefs that can unknowingly hinder the implementation of new initiatives. Tune in as we discuss competing beliefs and how to work with them to reach our goals. By acknowledging the competing commitments that exist within a school, leaders can bridge the gap between stated goals and causing the results we are authentically committed to producing!
